Wanted to try a yum upgrade on a non-critical machine just for the experience. I usually use (and would generally recommend) an anaconda fresh install, or sometimes upgrade, from CD or network.
Worked OK , but found a few variations to the above were necessary (or desirable :-). Had to update some additional rpms in advance to fix dependencies, and fix up yum and up2date config files.
Here's my edited version of Seth Vidal's update procedure. YMMV.

I just did a fresh install from CD when I "upgraded".
